A selective and atom-economic rearrangement of uridine by cascade biocatalysis for production of pseudouridine
Abstract As a crucial factor of their therapeutic efficacy, the currently marketed mRNA vaccines feature uniform substitution of uridine (U) by the corresponding C-nucleoside, pseudouridine (Ψ), in 1-N-methylated form. Synthetic supply of the mRNA building block (1-N-Me-Ψ−5’-triphosphate) involves e...
